An image from the National City Public Library photograph collection. The official National City Public Library was founded by Frank Kimball with the help of Rev. Frank A. Bissell who had moved to National City in the early 1890s to take on the pastoral duties of the Congregational Church. Frank and his brother Warren agreed to donate 750 of their books to the current Library Association with the expectation that the volumes would go to the new library. In 1911, National City’s Carnegie Library, designed by Architect William Sterling Hebbard, was officially dedicated. The "delivery desk" was set in a spacious lobby, allowing librarians to see almost the entire facility. The library also included a private room for the librarian and a "Children’s Room." Since then, the National City Public Library has expanded, and continues in its mission to serve the informational, educational, social and recreational needs of all the residents of the community.
